Augusta rules for moving trucks, trailers and containers.
Key rule: In Augusta, trucks or other freight-carrying vehicles of more than one-ton capacity with three or more axles may not park or stand on a public street, or on residentially zoned property, for longer than one hour, day or night.
In Augusta (the consolidated Augusta-Richmond County government), trucks of more than one-ton capacity with three or more axles may not park or stand on a street or residential property for more than an hour, and a truck more than eight feet wide or ten feet high may not stand on a street without its driver present. Any parked vehicle must leave at least 10 feet of roadway open for traffic and, on two-way roads, sit within 12 inches of the right-hand curb. Short-term, non-utility uses of the right-of-way go through the Engineering Department's non-utility ROW encroachment form.
